"Last year's phase two DME results did not provide the outcome management and investors had hoped for, but extremely undervalued assets remain at iCo Therapeutics", said Andrew Rae, President & CEO of iCo Therapeutics. "We entered 2015 with a focus on those assets and plans to drive significant value this year. We remain committed to our oral Amphotericin B clinical study plans and continue to assess complimentary assets which the Company may consider in-licensing or acquiring. We also look forward to additional data this year from our partner, Immune Pharma, as they recently confirmed timing and advancement of their clinical programs using iCo-008 in their yearend announcement."
